Corpus Juris: The Order of the Defender of Arabia

Dr Amrit Rattan K Baidwan- Macfarland presents three essays, the first is on Jurisprudence, entitled; what the law is and what the law ought to be. The complex nature of Jurisprudence based on the original natural justice theory, is examined as well as other theories, which have since been postulated by contemporary jurists. Supreme court decisions are cited to elucidate how natural justice principles engage modern cases today. The second part explores the concepts contained within the original Sanskrit Indian Arthashastra document on diplomacy, used for governance and international affairs, by two of the most famous emperors of India, Chandragupta Maurya, and his successor Ashoka. Finally, the contemporary debate on Israel, Palestine, Syria, Golan Heights, and Jerusalem is presented using key knowledge and contemporary concepts, established by historians and International relations academics.
